Asarco owned and operated a smelter plant around the turn of the century in Everett, Wa. They dismantled it and sold for residential use. Houses were built in the 1940's and the 1950's. In 1990 the Dept. of Ecology found that the land of North Everett had been badly contaminated with arsenic. Under an enforcement order Asarco was told to proceed with cleanup. We are now in the public comment period. We need your comments. Anyone can comment, no matter where you live. The Dept. of Ecology has to answer anyone who sends a comment. The comments need to reflect that Asarco must clean-up any land that has 20 parts per million arsenic or more, and that Asarco cannot leave any of the contamination in the neighborhood.
